Board of Directors

Together SC is run by nonprofit leaders, for nonprofit leaders, and nowhere is that more evident than in the board of directors. Together SC's directors are either executives of member nonprofit organizations, or representatives of businesses that serve the nonprofit sector. Directors are elected by the membership to three-year terms.
